Customer review from Liveaboard.com
“A truly amazing trip, above, on and below the water ! Diving in Komodo was amazing. The dive sites were great, so much marine life and so much colour. Seeing the rays at Manta Alley has to be the highlight. Although Komodo is known for its currents, the divemasters kept a careful eye on these. The divemasters really knew what they were doing. It was particularly nice the way the itinerary included land excursions eg Gili Lawa, Komodo, Pink Beach and Padar Kecil, and at no extra cost. The boat was comfortable and the meals were good. This was our first liveaboard trip and we will definitely be booking more trips.”
